How do I move Recovery Partition Windows Server?
- Feb 13, 2025
Hi Mandaoy,
for Windows Server if this is a VM there are some tricks. Usually for Windows Server 3rd party tools are pretty expensive and a per instance licensing.
So you might want to grab one license on a WS or Windows Client jump host, and attach the VHDX in question. Move and unattach VHDX.
The question I have is: Why moving it? it is at the end of the physical drive and belongs there.
